March Hatch A Long... anyone with me??

I don't know.. I have a LG, and it's styrofoam, but I can't afford an expensive one...
it gets the job done!
I have eggs going on lockdown tonight, my own birds....
14 went in, two weren't fertile (new banty hens... prolly haven't gotten too familiar with their new hubby yet),
the other 12 are perfect...
so, can't be too bad...
 
I have set my new batch of eggs at 12:00pm today. 12 Aracaunas, 24 Light Sussex, 11 Mixed breeds and, 1 Cuckoo Maran (that I hope is fertile and makes it to be a hen

). Heres to hoping everything goes smoothly, THIS TIME!

What kind of incubator is that in the picture? and do you like it or better would you recomend it.

I currently use a hova-bator (stryrofoam). It is brand new and I was told they are junk!

Thanks! Got home from the Dr. to find another one out and 8 more pipped. Good day! I have the Brinsea Octagon 20 Eco. I got it on sale in December - it was around 180.00 or so including turner and shipping. I would have loved to get the next one up - the advance - and gotten the humidifier, but it just wasn't in the budget. I love the one I have though, the temps and humidity are very stable, very user friendly incubator. And if, for some reason, you must open the incubator, the temps and humidity recover quite quickly. I would definitely feel comfortable recommending it.
 
So far I have the following:

43 due on the 6th
45 due on the 13th
51 due onthe 16th
70 due on the 20th
25 due on the 24th

This gives me at total so far of 234 for March...I do have some polish coming to add first of next week...hoping to get to an even 250...

I have the 43 in lockdown today....32 'OE' eggs and 11 bantam cross eggs.
